This worked extremely well.

Also, I note the new addition of the Kiosk Override mode. This is simply a
fantastic option. We now
run Kiosk Mode by default and hand out registered cards to our power users
who need a Unix desktop.
That way all of our SunRays are 100% usable for the general staff, while
remaining flexible for power users.

I had a look back at the SRSS 3.1 Admin Guide and could not see anything
like it. An excellent SRSS 4.0 addition.

Cheers,
Aaron
